Great subject for a thread Sabu and some fine research also. I'm thinking that reel to reel tape may have been an option for many bars and restaurants. A relatively small and easy to use piece of equipment for the time to buy and use. Reel to reel also sounded great and many exotica acts at the time had tapes out at the same time the albums were released. In the end I would think that Muzak had a hand in the downfall of the classic dining experience as well. Just my opinion though.
